Quake 2 RTX can bring my 3090 to its knees. You could do HL2 but I bet it’d be about similar to Portal RTX

I believe its because the RTX remix games are path traced which is alot harder to do

Quake 2 doesn’t use RTX Remix. Or at least wasn’t advertised as that being the underlying tech.

Edit: I think I misunderstood what you were saying. Performance with Portal RTX Remix was significantly worse than with Quake 2 RTX.

Q2RTX is fully path traced, it was the path tracing tech demo before Portal RTX was.

What? Am I missing something? Several comments here about 3000 series not being able to handle what was easy for my 2060 to handle.

Probably at different resolutions. My 3080 has to drop to 25% minimum resolution and/or sub 60 fps when using the dynamic resolution option.

That’s 25% resolution from 4k, which I’m not sure is 1080p or 540p because it certainly looks blurrier than 1080p at lowest res.

Portal RTX was "easy" for your 2060? I remember having to set DLSS to ultra performance at 1080p to get it above 30fps on a 2060s.

That's 640x360 internal render resolution. Around 1/10 pixels of 1080p

Portal is one I haven't tried, but my working assumption until now was that I would have no issues.
